Hi Frank,
The house I used to stay at where the Ekco was in service from 1955 to 1963 was exactly the same, just like the '20s in terms of décor. The ritual was at weekends the set was wheeled into the front room which was normally out of bounds during the week.
The T221 and the 17" version does use the moulded plastic line output transformer housing. We'll find out later today if it is serviceable.
